Mohawks Stop Emms
But Can He Be Caught?
■Don't tell Exeter Mohuwks tljat
Don Emms and Junior Barash
of Strathroy Rockets are leading
the WOAA Major Group scoring
race—they’ll never believe you.
For the second game in a row,
Mohawks held the prolific pair
perennial good looks of alumi
num screen cloth. It gets star
billing among builders and home
owners both because it lasts so
much longer and because it
never stains or discolors sur
rounding woodwork.
It is also the lowest-priced
non-rusting insect screen on the
market. And that adds point to
the happy fact that Canada is
the world’s most efficient alumi
num producer. And that fact,
in turn, means that people who
make aluminum screen and
window frames, roofing and
hardware for Canada’s active
building industry can do so at
prices that save a lot of people
a lot of money.
ALUMINUM COMPANY OF
CANADA, LTD. (ALCAN)
(scoreless Tuesday night when
they racked up their 7-0 win. The
Stratihroy playing-coach and his
fierce teammate, foiled by the
Tribe’s defensive strategy, didn’t
look like league leaders in either
contes.
Despite the poor showing of
Emms and Barash against Moh
awks, the two have established
such a lead in the group scoring
race it’s doubtful if they can be
caught by the season’s end.
Only players who could out
point them are Exeter Mohawks’
trio, Bill Oberle, Red Loader and
Larry H e id e man , But even
though these Tribesmen have
played five less games, the Rock
ets’ margin is formidable.
Emms with 56 is 17 ahead of
Bill Oberle, the leading Mohawk.
To catch the Strathroy playing
coach Oberle would have to score
over three points a game for the
■five contests which separate the
two clubs and better Emms’ mark
for the rest of the season. It’s
possible but it’s a big chore.
The balding Rocket coach had
a field day against Goderich Mon
day night when he figured in all
of his team’s seven goals in the
tie game. Barash picked up three
goals and an assist.
Young Billy McDonald is the
■top Goderich Sailor in the scor
ing race. He moved into sixth
spot last week. Doug Thiel leads
Milverton snipers with 25 points.

Baker Wins First Shutout,
Heideman Blasts Rockets
Sharing starring roles in Moh
awks’ convincing 7-0 win over
Strathroy Rockets Tuesday night
were Gar Baker, who scored the
first league .shutout of the seas
on, and Larry Heideman, who
netted four goals.
The victory shoved Rockets off
the Tribe's back in the Major
Group standing. Strathroy had
moved to within one point of the
league-leading Exeter club be
fore the contest.
Baker, who appears well on the
way to wrestling the league’s
goaltender crown from Goder-
ich’.s Gerry Hesse, earned his
■goose egg with a number of nim
ble saves. He thwarted several
(Rocket breakaways and covered
roubounds like a tent.
The shutout gives the Exeter
school teacher an average of 3.54
goals against for the season, two
full goals better than his nearest
rival, Bob Rabethge, of Milver
ton. Hesse, who has held Gerry
Smith’s netminding cup for three
years, is in third spot with a big
average of 4.89.
Sparkling Heideman
Larry Heideman’,s four tallies
were just reward for his spark
ling performance at centre ice.
The tall playmaker was by far
top man of the evening.
His quartet of markers moves
him into third place for total
goals in the league and into
fifth place in the scoring race.
He has 21 tallies and 10 assists.
(Bill Oberle, who scored twice
himself, now has 23 markers,
only three less than Junior Bar
ash who leads the league’s goal
getters. Oberle, top Exeter scorer,
is in third place in the poi nt
race.
Playing-coach R ed Loader
■picked up a goal and two assists
to remain in fourth place in the
league standing. Don Gravett and
Doug Smith were credited with
two assists each and John Dwyer,
Ted Bogal and Bill Wharnsby
received single points.
